Customizing the Package Control Script
You need to customize as follows. See the entries for the corresponding modular-package
parameters under “Package Parameter Explanations” (page 261) for more discussion.
• Update the PATH statement to reflect any required paths needed to start your
services.
• If you are using LVM, enter the names of volume groups to be activated using the
VG[] array parameters, and select the appropriate options for the storage activation
command, including options for mounting and unmounting filesystems, if desired.
Do not use the VXVM_DG[] or CVM_DG[] parameters for LVM volume groups.
• If you are using CVM, enter the names of disk groups to be activated using the
CVM_DG[] array parameters, and select the appropriate storage activation
command, CVM_ACTIVATION_CMD. Do not use the VG[] or VXVM_DG[]
parameters for CVM disk groups.
• If you are using VxVM disk groups without CVM, enter the names of VxVM disk
groups that will be imported using the VXVM_DG[] array parameters. Enter one
disk group per array element. Configure vxvm_dg_retry (page 279) if necessary. Do
not use theCVM_DG[] or VG[] parameters for VxVM disk groups without CVM,
and do not specify an activation command.
Do not include CFS-based disk groups in the package control script; on systems
that support CFS and CVM, they are activated by the CFS multi-node packages
before standard packages are started.
• If you are using mirrored VxVM disks, specify the mirror recovery option VXVOL.
• Add the names of logical volumes and the file system that will be mounted on
them.
• Select the appropriate options for the storage activation command (not applicable
for basic VxVM disk groups), and also include options for mounting filesystems,
if desired.
• Specify the filesystem mount and unmount retry options.
• If your package uses a large number of volume groups or disk groups or mounts
a large number of file systems, consider increasing the number of concurrent
vgchange, mount, umount, and fsck operations.
